^31 (A)You shall not worship the Lord your God in that way; for every ^[a]abomination to the Lord which He hates they have done to their gods; for ^(B)they burn even their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods.

²¹ And you shall not let any of your descendants ^(A)pass through ^(B)the fire to ^(C)Molech, nor shall you profane the name of your God: I am the Lord.

² And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, ^(A)according to the abominations of the nations whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.

^11 (A)“Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations (^(B)he has acted more wickedly than all the ^(C)Amorites who were before him, and ^(D)has also made Judah sin with his idols),

^17 (A)And they caused their sons and daughters to pass through the fire, ^(B)practiced witchcraft and soothsaying, and ^(C)sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger.

³¹ For when you offer ^(A)your gifts and make your sons pass through the fire, you defile yourselves with all your idols, even to this day. So shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live,” says the Lord God, “I will ^(B)not be inquired of by you.

²⁶ and I pronounced them unclean because of their ritual gifts, in that they caused all ^[a]their firstborn to pass ^(A)through the fire, that I might make them desolate and that they ^(B)might know that I am the Lord.” ’
